What sober living costs in Texas, and how residents pay for it
Across Texas, sober living generally runs about $185 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. For comparison, median gross rent across Texas is $1,403 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through Be Well Texas vouchers and Project HOMES or similar state funding. Texas Health and Human Services Commission is where that funding sits.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, funded by an equal share from each resident and required to stay substance-free. New members are interviewed and admitted by a house vote, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Certification and oversight in Texas
Texas does not licence recovery residences as facilities. Certification is voluntary and administered by Texas Recovery Oriented Housing Network (TROHN), the NARR affiliate for the state. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. The certified-residence list for Texas is published here. Residents are protected by the federal Fair Housing Act and by Texas Fair Housing Law (Texas Property Code Section 301.021).
